Second round had INSANE name tools this year Sindarius Thornwell, Jaron Blossomgame, Alpha Kaba some of the best but not even half the top echelon names

They need someone on the set who actually watched these players. Peter Jok to the Pelicans you might want to know.

Bill Laimbeer should elbow every draftee in the solarplexus before the league will even entertain processing their paperwork.

Reminder that Simmons was mad about the Nets/Celtics trade... because it was bad for the celtics https://twitter.com/billsimmons/status/350304660172713984?lang=en

I hope Jawun Evans is really good, and not just Pierre Jackson good.

I checked my notes on Luke Kennard and it turns out I've just been writing "Luke Kennard is awful" for almost three years.

Let's pretend that Ainge has a long term plan... Does he really expect Westbrook, Towns or Davis to be on the trading block in a year or two, or is he dedicated to building through the draft? Because I just can't see passing on Butler unless you're doing one or the other. I might be drunk...Reassure me people

He has an NBA level jumper but that's pretty much it. Super fun to watch college player though. I don't think he'll get more than maybe like a 10 day contract in the NBA but he'll make a bunch of money in Europe as long as his knees hold up

Picks as assets are fungible and can usually be rolled over into future assets of roughly equal value Superstars are extremely limited quantity. Ainge might be frustrating as all hell but it's a defensible management strategy to hang back and save up for a superhero. In the meantime, the team was the faux #1 seed this year (LeBron coasts, that ain't up for debate no more + Eastern Conference Sucks Caveat) despite not having a legit 2-way star
